If you want to watch live TV or stream live TV online in your room you must buy a television licence. Following a change in the law, you must also buy a television licence if you download or watch any BBC programmes on iPlayer – live, catch up or on demand. If you have a television that you use to watch live TV or BBC iPlayer in your flat’s communal area then you must have a TV licence for the flat.
